Description:

"Now in its second edition, this book is further enhanced by African proverbs. Intended as an introduction to African art, this book investigates five key themes common to many cultures in Africa: the human figure, community status symbols, objects for personal use, animal symbols, and ceremonial masks. The author examines the roots of the art and the ideas that bring this continent to life."--BOOK JACKET.
